Lets see now, Are not the primaries for the purpose of selecting a canidate for the November Election?????? The Conventions must be for the carousing of all immoral acts, slapping each other on the back for doing nothing, lying to the voters, getting photo ops, putting meals and drinks on expense accounts and getting drunk. That goes for both parties. Well if you consider the ultimate embarresment -----that is the Super Delegates which violates the real voters rights but hey that is just the democrats way of mooning the voters. Bottom line to these sad escapades is that YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID and that is what you view at these conventions.
